COMMITMENT: Meechi Harris picks Kentucky

Justin Rowland has been CatsIllustrated.com's publisher since 2015. He covered college football recruiting at programs nationwide for 15 years prior to that.

High three-star wide receiver Meechi Harris committed to Kentucky at his high school football game on Friday night.

The news did not come as a surprise to anyone who follows Kentucky football recruiting at the House of Blue, where Cats Illustrated had reported Harris would be likely to commit to Kentucky by the end of this week or the beginning of the next.

Harris joins Marvin Alexander and Akeem Hayes as Kentucky's third wide receiver commitment from the Class of 2018.

He has a 5.7 Rivals Rating, which nets Kentucky 90 points in the network's formula. Kentucky's class is now ranked No. 16 at Rivals.com.
